Taylor Rain born August 16, 1981 in Long Beach, California, USA is a pornographic film star. She claims that she was attending Cypress College to become a flight attendant but changed her mind after the September 11, 2001 attacks and decided upon a career in the pornographic film industry. She has appeared in more than 200 pornographic films in a three-year time span, the first of which was under the name Nikki Star in Pop Goes the Cherry. As with several other female porn stars most of her work includes anal sex. She married Scott Fayner on January 10, 2004. The marriage was annulled shortly after. Taylor has done very few lesbian scenes. With the exception of a lesbian threesome in Penetration Nation. She has also never appeared in a scene with a black performer and has said she will simply not do interracial scenes, although she has appeared in one scene with Rick Lee, an Asian male. This choice may be due to her father's influence, for his dislike of interracial sexual relations. In December 2005, she announced her retirement from acting in pornographic movies and will focus on directing titles.
